Yep, like that. There will be the odd GP here and there
being employed by a hospital outpatient care unit. But
those, again, are unlikely to work in a regular GP practice
concurrently.

There's a certain portion of community based specialists who
rent beds or even small wards in a local hospital for
peri-operative/peri-cath care of their (otherwise
ambulant-care) patients.
